AML Ops for High-Growth iGaming & Fintech Companies

Hands-on reengineering of broken AML operations — workflow, tooling, and escalation built to scale.

  • Improve efficiency caused by overly manual processes (KYC, EDD, OSINT, monitoring)
  • Reduce case backlogs and keep escalations consistent as volumes grow
  • Make STR/SAR decisions inspection-ready with consistent, evidence-based escalation
AML Compliance Readiness Check

Solve AML Challenges

AML Operations Problems We Fix

Broken EDD workflows, fragmented case management, tool sprawl, and escalation models that don’t scale in high-growth environments.

Risk-Based and Supervisor-Aligned AML Compliance

Defensible Under Supervisory Scrutiny

AML operations designed to be auditable, explainable, and aligned with supervisory expectations, not just documented.

AML programs rarely fail because they’re wrong on paper.
They fail when growth exposes workflows, tooling, and escalation paths that were never designed to scale.

AML Operations Built to Scale Under Growth

We help high-growth iGaming and fintech companies design, fix, and scale AML operations that break as volumes, products, and regulatory expectations increase, without slowing product velocity or drowning compliance with manual casework.
AML Ops Scaling Diagnostic

AML Ops Scaling Diagnostic

Assess where growth is breaking alerts, casework, data flows, and escalations. Prioritize fixes with a clear, sequenced roadmap.

AML Alert Quality & Tuning Program

Alert Quality & Tuning Program

Reduce noise and backlog by tuning scenarios, thresholds, segmentation, and suppression logic under a repeatable change-control cadence.

AML Case Management & Escalation Redesign

Case Management & Escalation Redesign

Redesign alerts → cases → escalation so decisions are consistent, traceable, and resilient under volume spikes.

STR/SAR Decisioning & QA System

Risk-Based Controls & Automation

Standardize STR/SAR decisions using proportionate controls, operational playbooks, and targeted automation with QA.

AML Tooling & Data Architecture

AML Tooling & Data Architecture

Define how AML data flows across KYC/EDD, monitoring, and payments to ensure lineage, auditability, and reproducible decisions.

AML Vendor Evaluation & Change Readiness

Vendor Evaluation & Change Readiness

Qualify vendors against workflows, data, and scale requirements, and guide pragmatic build-vs-buy decisions and migrations.

How We Work

A practical, execution-focused approach to fixing and scaling AML operations under growth and regulatory pressure.

1


Diagnose

Map how AML actually operates today across systems, teams, and tools, not just what policies say.

2


Redesign

Reengineer workflows, escalation logic, and tooling responsibilities so AML scales with growth.

3


Implement

Support execution across compliance, product, and engineering, ensuring controls are practical and defensible.

Who We Work With

Tech-led obliged entities where customer growth, product complexity, and regulatory exposure are increasing faster than AML operations can scale.

Our focus is on organizations that need scalable, defensible AML operations without slowing product velocity or overbuilding compliance teams.

  • Organizations whose AML operations are breaking under growth (alerts, casework, escalations, or tooling no longer scale with volumes).
  • Firms under bank, regulator, or partner scrutiny that need demonstrably consistent, auditable AML decisions without rebuilding everything from scratch.
  • Teams that need a senior, hands-on AML ops partner to fix workflows, tooling, and escalation logic instead of hiring a large internal function.

iGaming Operators & Platforms

High-growth online gaming and betting businesses operating across multiple jurisdictions with increasing AML scrutiny.

  • Rapid player growth and escalating alert volumes

  • Fragmented KYC, OSINT monitoring, and payments tooling

  • Escalations and SAR decisions that don’t scale under volume

Fintechs & Payments-Heavy Platforms

Software-first fintechs and PSP-adjacent platforms with complex flows, partners, and supervisory exposure.

  • Multiple products, rails, and jurisdictions

  • AML embedded across onboarding, payments, and monitoring

  • Pressure from banks, partners, or supervisors to mature controls

Scale-Ups Under Regulatory Pressure

Companies where AML worked “well enough” at one stage but is now breaking under growth or expansion.

  • Case backlogs and manual workarounds emerging

  • Engineering and compliance misalignment

  • Upcoming inspections, audits, or market launches

You’re Likely a Fit If…

You’re an obliged entity with real AML risk, real volume, and the budget to fix structural problems properly.

  • Tech-led, software-centric operating model

  • Willing to invest in scalable fixes, not band-aids

  • Need hands-on support across compliance, product, and engineering
